Po the Cat

Uploaded: December 29, 2007

Description

Here is another image of Po the cat. I was asked by our next door neighbors to photograph him because he has been diagnosed with bowel cancer and has been only given a few months to live. This is one of their favourite images of him. It is a special image for me to be able to capture something precious like this for someone. I hope you like it too.

Cheers Adam

Great cat portrait, lovely looking cat. I just can't think of anything to say, how bloody sad. It seems so unfair that the wanted pets get crook. We just lost little Elvis the hare & StrayGray before Xmas & it's just so sad. Very well taken, hope you can take a few more, give him everything he wants=^..^= #816975

This is such a fabulous image!! My heart goes out to your neighbors and the kitty himself. We are cat lovers as well here and it's heartbreaking to see them decline.

Thank you all for your kind words and prayers.

Sadly Po did pass away peacefully just last week in his owners arms.

They have made a little shrine for him in their house for him to be remembered.
